Yea it is and I was going to suggest it.

Right now I'm just pissed about not being able to keep my unlimited data plan by switching to the Iphone5.

Really? I have been told by AT&T reps that changing phones doesn't affect your plan.

You can keep unlimited data with Verizon, you just have to pay cash for your phones. No-promo pricing and you keep unlimited 4G-LTE data plan. Worth it to me. The theoritical limitation to 4G-LTE bandwidth is somewhere around 128Mb/s. Actual real world tests from 2011 found Verizon speeds near 40 Mb/s. Just a wee bit faster than 3G's rocking 5-14 Mb/s but actual 1.2 Mb/s.

$750 for a new phone is not an option. The rest of the family plan keeps unlimited while I have 2 gb cap at the same price. The next upgrade for the rest of the family will force us to change plans unless they pay out of contract price for the phone. Verizon is trying to get rid of all unlimited plans. If you google iphone5 unlimited data verizon loophole you will find a good way to keep unlimited data and get promo priced phones. I couldn't do that either because we are maxed out on lines for our family plan. Plus no dumb phones either.

$299 promo price for upgrading and $299 in 2 years is less then having to pay $1500 in 2 years. Considering I usually break the phone in some fashion before the 2 years is up I'm a slave to their terms of the contract

Get a less expensive phone and keep unlimited data. Not everyone can afford to be a baller.

I paid $175 for my Spectrum after I took the first one swimming with me. Still have unlimited data.
